Results for 'sodium citrate':
EXPERIMENT 1
---------------
Copper (II) builds a complex with citrate ions. When treated with ferro
cyanide, this complex is destroyed, resulting in copper ferrocyanide.
When treated with ferricyanide, then it is not destroyed. Apparently
copper ferricyanide dissolves better in water, such that the complex
with citrate can remain in solution.
EXPERIMENT 2
---------------
Vanadyl gives diverse complexes with citrate, the color of these complexes
strongly depends on the pH of the solution.
EXPERIMENT 3
---------------
It is possible to let a liquid completely solidify by making the correct
precipitates. Citrate is very suitable for this, combined with some
transition metals.
EXPERIMENT 4
---------------
Tetra chloro auric acid (a.k.a. "gold chloride"), a gold (III) compound is
easily reduced to metallic gold, which forms a colloidal solution. With
strong reductors, the gold particles formed are so large that they form
a dark precipitate.
EXPERIMENT 5
---------------
Nickel (II) forms a complex with citrate. In a strongly alkaline environment
the nickel (II) does not precipitate. With just a small amount of ferric
ions present in the liquid, the complete liquid solidifies to a gelatin-
like constitution.
When the same experiment is done, without the nickel (II) present, no
solidification is observed.
